We help families improve the quality of their lives and achieve self-sufficiency. We provide comprehensive services to families, children, and individuals throughout Erie County. Our mission is to provide programs and services that support the emotional and financial well-being of our community.

To find out which programs and services are available in your neighborhood, please visit the Center Locator map. For information on whether your family fits the income guidelines for a specific program, visit the QuikChek Income Guidelines Center.
